New Everton Owners: The Friedkin Group

[Lob]

Roll out Operation Embargo.

 

[Lanolin]

Its not just him mate. The Bobble reported it too shortly before he did and he is mostly reliable.

Yeah I'm not really debating whether it's true or not, more just commenting on the Alan Myers thing. It's quite noticeable the difference in who/what people believe when it's something they want to hear as opposed to when it's not.

 

[Drico]

Still, this fog of confusion is even more evidence - were it needed - that David Prentice needs banishment. The communication around this has been, as befitting the entire Moshiri era, a shambles.

Friday?

 

[datblygu]

What trophies shall we win first?

 

[Everton-Bulgaria]

What trophies shall we win first? FA CUP

 

[GoldenToffee]

What trophies shall we win first?

Let's start with the 17th placed trophy this season.

 

[fitzyefc]

There both right.
Premier league has approved.
But it now has to go to a further approvals panel within the premier league. Thought this was commonly known.

I’m not his biggest fan or that of the Blue Politburo, however approvals are one thing, mosh seeing whatever he’s due in his bank account is something entirely different.
I’m not suprised he / the club aren’t reporting it as a done deal or reporting whatever a potential buyer had gone through with regulatory process.
If he reported stuff as a done deal before the finances are executed and then it goes south the club would rightly be ridiculed imo.
Like Textor like 777.
Best to wait until the ink is dry so to speak imo.

Friday?

If its next week, then it will be the farthest possible moment right at the end of next week. That's the Everton way.

 

[Sean Ashley]

Just the news all we all want, allows TFG to complete the deal next week. And then they can go about replacing Dyche and bringing back positivity to the club before we head to BMD.

Having a few cold ones tonight

 

[Bedfordblue]

This has been reported for over an hour, and not a single signing made yet. Dyche not been sacked, Red Kev not been replaced.
Absolutely no ambishon this lot.

Yeah, I'm being a little facetious.

That said, I don't think it would kill the club to make a statement today bringing people up to date with the actual state of play - even if it is only to say that any approval is subject to a shareholders' vote.

 

[Davideeyore]

I check for Everton news and I see Li Tie being jailed is the headline. Although Sky saying the takeover confirmed. Slightly less of a headline then.

Everton never say anything
